  • James Metcalf ESCULTURA 20 Septiembre - 10 Noviembre, 2018
    James Metcalf ESCULTURA 20 septiembre - 10 noviembre, 2018 Gaga se complace en presentar la primera exposición individual de James Metcalf en la galería. Este proyecto parte de una serie que pretende revisar la obra de artistas de otras generaciones y meter en diálogo con la escena del arte contemporáneo en México. A pesar del hecho reconocido de que el metal ha sido, sin comparación, el elemento más importante en el desarrollo humano durante los últimos tres mil años, la disciplina de las artes plásticas menos comprendida por los legos así como por los críticos es sin duda la del trabajo en metal. Los dos principales motivos de esta situación son: primero, que el valor económico del metal por sí mismo explica el hecho de que nuestros museos carezcan de ejemplos adecuados para el estudio del desarrollo del arte del metal. Aunque este vacío existe en los tesoros de todas las culturas, en ningún lugar es tan grande el contraste como entre las casi increíbles descripciones de las magnificencias del arte del metal que fueron contempladas por los primeros europeos que llegaron a América, y lo que nos es dado ver hoy. La segunda razón es que la creatividad del trabajador en metal fue la víctima principal de la revolución industrial; su talento fue pervertido hasta la extinción por las crecientes demandas impuestas al diseño. Las piezas que se muestran en esta exposición han sido escogidas, siempre que ha sido posible, para ilustrar las diferentes etapas de la lucha de un artista por rectificar este mal entendimiento y reinstalar la escultura en metal en el lugar que le corresponde como medio creativo directo.

  • Christie's Leads Americana Week in New York with a Series of Significant Collections
    For Immediate Release December 21, 2007 Contact: Sara Fox [email protected] 212.636.2680 CHRISTIE’S LEADS AMERICANA WEEK IN NEW YORK WITH A SERIES OF SIGNIFICANT COLLECTIONS Important American Silver ~ January 17 Important American Furniture, Folk Art, Prints and Decoys ~ January 17 - 18 Property from the Collection of George and Lesley Schoedinger ~ January 18 The Collection of Marguerite and Arthur Riordan, Stonington Connecticut ~ January 18 New York – Christie’s is honored to present several significant collections during Americana week on January 17-18 in New York with The Collection of Marguerite and Arthur Riordan, Stonington Connecticut, Property from the Collection of George and Lesley Schoedinger, Property of the Estate of Charles H. Carpenter, Jr., and Property from the Hirsch and Ethel D. Jacobs. Leading the Important American Furniture, Folk Art, Prints and Decoys sale is the Stevenson family scalloped-top tea table (estimate: $1,500,000- 2,500,000). This season of American Furniture and Decorative Arts will delight collectors with a range of rare objects — from waterfowl decoys to a collection of thoroughbred racing trophies. Following the recent record breaking sale in October 2007 of the “Garvan” carved pie-crust tea table, the focal point of the various owner sale is the Stevenson family Chippendale mahogany scalloped-top tea table (estimate: $1,500,000-2,500,000). Conceived and executed as a masterpiece, this tea table survives in a remarkable state of preservation. Its old, largely undisturbed surface reveals a magnificent mahogany grain and the full depth of its exuberant carving. The table’s elaborately carved details – described at that time as a ‘scalloped top’, ‘carved pillar’, ‘fluting for the pillar’, ‘leaves on knees’ and ‘claw feet’ – were among the attributes listed in Philadelphia’s 1772 cabinetmaker’s price book that made this design the most expensive option listed.

    The Gurdjieff Ensemble “Delicate, haunting and atmospheric selection of instrumental pieces… they range from drifting, mesmeric arrangements for the duduk Armenian woodwind to subtle, sparse passages, or more sturdy dance pieces played on the zither-like kanon, the oud or the santur dulcimer. An intriguing, often gently exquisite set.” - Robin Denselow, “The Guardian” ​ “Sie präsentieren sich mit berückenden, sehnsuchtsvollen, tief beseelten Klängen, die auf musikalische Rit-uale des täglichen Lebens zurückgehen, auf Kirchen-, Liebes- und Tanzlieder, Hirtenmelodien und rituelle Musik. Das ist wie eine akustische Brücke über die Jahrhunderte und ein Toleranzprogramm der Weltgegenden.” - Ulrich Steinmetzger, Mitteldeutsche Zeitung ​ ​ “The combination of instrumental voices, and the otherness of the voices themselves creates deep, mysterious yet marvelously relaxing soundscapes to sit awhile in.” - Phil Johnson, “The Independent” ​ "The undisputed star of the ensemble, though, is the duduk, a reed instrument with a malleable sound that can be porous and fragile or full-throated and uncannily human-sounding.

The quality of the metal and its value has long been assured by a specialized professional community, one aspect of our inquiry.
